Welcome millybaby! How many clomid cycles have you done?
Quinn, keep those attempts going untill you see a temp rise. Every 2nd day would be fine though if its too much pressure.
Pbn, how is your digital testing going?
I had a terrible night sleep last night. I felt like I was woken up every few hours. DS1 fell out of bed, DS2 was scared of dinosaurs under his bed! It was a hot night so I think everyone wasn't sleeping the best.
Thankyou Ladies here's hoping [emoji4]
Sorry to hear your boys sick as well Netti! And Purple gotta love nights like that - hope your not feeling like a zombie all day x

Wow sounds like most of us had a bad night lol I think I averaged about five hours sleep :(
Thanks for asking Purple I got my first flashing smiley this morning so no early o for me. I've got my fingers crossed that I don't get a solid until Friday morning now as dh is on night shift tomorrow and Thursday night and trying to get a bd in during the day will be an absolute mission :(. So hoping with everything that friday is bd day but no point worrying about it till the time comes lol.
Lauren how was your temp this morning?
How many days of flashing smileys do you normally get.
I'm most likely going to test Friday at 10dpo... I'm already getting impatient. Maybe I will just use some ICs until then.
Anywhere from 2-5 days of flashing :)
Lol purple you sound like me 😂 im too impatient. Even scrutinizing my body hehe.
Ds4 is really not well. Panadol doesn't seen to be breaking the temps. Hes off his lunch bottle but did manage his morning one and morning tea.
I did manage to win a $50 gift voucher this morning 😀
When are due to O pbn?

Friday or Saturday Netti hopefully the latter :)
Yay for your win! Lets hope its a sign of things to come!
Your poor ds I hope he's better soon!
Woohoo pbn not too long 😆
It was such a shock to win fx it is
Finally his temp has gone down abit and he will have a rest

Hopper - - regarding your sway, is your DH older than 35? If so, he shouldn't be taking LR. Most people have stopped doing cranberry, but it's up to you if you think it's important.
Quinn - - I never O the day after my first +opk. Usually not till 2-3 days after when my opk has already gone negative. Good luck and keep BD'ing!
It went up a tad after being the exact same two days in a row :)http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/10...34003bb375.jpgQuote:

Thanks essnce :) Hes 34 in a couple of weeks. I'm in two minds over the cranberry. I asked Atomic twice and she has said both times that she still thinks cran is better than OLE as the results arent there for OLE yet...I dunno. Cause every swayer seems to have their DH on OLE. If I were to switch him to OLE can I just do a straight swap? Hes tolerating the cran well but at the same time OLE does seem to be the safer (and more currently successful) of the two supps.Quote:

I think my smiley opk was WAY before O last two cycles and with e4d our attempts were actually the day before the +opk so seems like it was O-3 or even O-4 which when doing j&d after 5 minutes is not ideal. And are any of you using lube? The last two cycles I have had minimal natural lubrication but I don't want to cut our chances completely. We have mt Nov and Dec cycles left to attempt then need to take a 2-3 month break. While I want to sway as pink as I can I would really like to succeed at getting pg before having to take a break.
Sorry to hear so many of us are having crappy sleep. DS1 definitely has croup, poor guy. His temp was sky high yesterday, 39.1 celsius/102 ish fahrenheit. Think he sweated it out last night but I have spent the last two nights awake and on edge, ready to act. So tired today!
Oh and on my last FRER this morning it was 100% stark white BFN. I'm focused on our next attempt now and awaiting the dreaded AF (Just in time for my girls night on Saturday probably lol) Hoping for another bfp or ten to finish this thread off;)
Hi hopper
I think one attempt at + opk will be better than e4d. E4d certainly works if you arent using opks. I personally think I O at least 24hrs plus after first +opk. Not using lube i think i did the first cycle. But ive practically gone without as it kills sperm however some are using sperm safe ones and may be able to point you in the right direction.
As for the OLE its what i had my dh on however he has been forgetting to take them since forever 😠 atomic might be the best to ask in terms if you can make a switch straight away. I can't see why you wouldn't be able to but best to ask the people in the know 😆

Sooo I have a dilemma! Yday I had a glob of EWCM which I don't usually get which prompted me to do an opk and there was a fair line. So ive tested again today at CD10 and it's a blazing positive and my urine was quite dilute. I last BD 3 days ago, and I usually O closer to 2 days following + OPK.. So do I have my attempt tonight or hang on until tomorrow!? Knowing my luck if I hang on I'll miss it [emoji35] I wish my cycles were straight forward 28 day jobs! Xx

I'd bd tonight for that one, poptart. 3 days ago if you o overnight tonight isn't great odds.

Will it affect sperm count much do you think? We used to BD at least every day with my boys so even 3 days is a difference to us xx

Sorry ladies, I have one more question. My temp rose today so it's looking like I O'd yesterday (Monday). Dh and I dtd Friday at 6am, Saturday at 10pm, Sunday at 6am, and last night at 9:30pm. Those don't seem like good dtd times for there to be enough sperm waiting around when I O. What do you think?

Are you doing a boy sway Quinn? I think there would be loads hanging around! That's a lot of BD!!

Also I started taking vitex today.. Ive felt flushed like I do taking clomid but not so extreme as that.. And ive read that can cause false positives?

Id have the attempt tonight poptart gl xx i wish I had them cycles too 😂
Those are some pretty good attempts Quinn. Sperm can survive for a few days in the right environment. Fx you did catch it xx
Mum to 4 Boys awaiting her Princess
Thanks everyone. I always feel like I waste the good sperm early on and then there's nothing left when I get close to ovulating!!

I'm only 7dpo and oddly enough, today I've been so nauseated. I ate lunch and immediately had to go puke and have Ben queasy ever since. Is that even possible?
Maybe it's a virus going around?
